Why no updates
« on: February 17, 2010, 12:14:10 PM »
 Unfortunately, not only I had some days away from the comp, but I was afk due to some pain stabs in my stomach, had a small accident in the stairs T-T damn kitties leaving their toys all around.

 But also, the newborn has been requires too much attention. =_= so.. my huge apologies and will try to compensate.

Sadly I had no time whatsoever to actually sit by the comp and draw anything let alone play some WoW >_<

Too much to deal with, tho I did had my deathknight boosted through some instances by my boyfriend as he sometimes helps me when I don't have the time.

 However, even if a day late, I do promise that tomorrow the page will be up.

 Sadly had absolutely no time during the weekend to even sit down and draw. Happens every now and then with being social during the weekend.

a mix between oversleeping and then training and home late is to blame for no uppdate yesterday, I promise I will uppdate today when I get back from work :)

Its possible there wont be any updates for a week, as I have to help and be present for easter "crap" celebrations.

I am not catolic, but my family is ... of course while they be celebration whatever religious thing it is with eastern, I think of it as more of a spring welcome, or think of myself hunting down that egg hiding rabbit :3

Regardless, I'll be working on the comic on my free time and when back, the pages will be posted if Lita wants.

Were currently trying to figure out why this new fancy program seems to render in souch poor quality. Thats why we haven't posted any uppdate so far this week.
We'd prefer if you could actually read the text after all :)

 Unfortunately it's unsure when the next pages (yes pages, I have a bunch done to start compensating days/situations like these) will be finished =/

 Sadly the one Art store with nice materials at reachable prices, closed down for lack of money it seems. Currently looking for a store with about the same materials at prices I can afford. Of course I could do the whole thing directly on the computer with my Wacom Bambo .. but I guess I'm too old school, and in my complete and honest opinion, I can do better details by hand on paper.

 So again, I'm really sorry.

At last, work is back in progress ^^ quite a few handful of pages have been predone while waiting, most already inked or in inking proccess ^_^

All thanks to Lita *hugs* Thankfully this isn't a post apologizing for the lack of posting, more of an apology on why pages have been looking different from page to page. While Manga Studio had prooven to be a helping hand when it came to filling backgrounds and all, it also seemed to do a very blurry rendering of the pages when done by hand on paper and imported to the program .. now, I do own a Wacom, and could draw directly on the program, but the thing is, it would lose some detail and would take twice as long, because I wouldnt be able to do a proper meassuring of the framing.

So.. in the end.. Manga Studio had to be discarted.

The new updated page ( on 27 - 5 - 2010 ) is more of a black and white filling, with pencil "colored" backgrounds, which looks good. Yes.

But then, while attacking old pages, I started to shade by sheer fun, this being the result.



After showing to Lita, she seemed to like it as much as I did, so, I've started to apply it on other pages :) have to say, they fill the pages more than i thought and give a new look to it.

Anyway, I'm sorry if the comic took too long to get back on tracks. *bows*

Has been hard to keep up with everything and manage to keep a track of all. thank whoever for me actually not having WoW and stuff to swallow me ..

Sadly, despite it would be lying if I said I don't miss the game, I am in no stages of wasting money on a game I barely play. But the reason I haven't managed to keep the comic on the going, its not just cuz of the job, its cuz it hasn't been the best of weeks.

My bed finally gave in to the years and broke, I caught a small virus and got sick, now at the moment I'm recovering from inflamed throat. Overall... the heat waves and whatnot making me virtually hard to put up with, bitchy, highly pissy cuz of lack of sleep/rest .. I lately shown no mood whatsoever for anything, and the moment I actually tried to draw, the sketchbook didnt flew out the window or ended slammed in the wall cuz I had company.

Hoping to soon get my hands back to work, and will leave this as it is ^^ not like it really matters much, if anyone is actually here is to read a comic and stuff, not the whining of a silly girl. :3
